Perfect house if you have kids because it was walking distance to everything, restaurans, the beach and Vons max 5 minutes away. The backyard was great, at nights we sat outside. My first time in Catalina and let me tell you I'm definitely going back and hopefully I can stay at the same house again. I mean everything!

I use VRBO to get this property and this is first time I booked rental home. This is my first impression about this property. Pro Location, Location, Location closer to the Beach, restaurants, and market(Vons) Con no washer use(even though the washer is onsite) only provide 2 towel per person.(Management said 2 is enough for 3days. I guess they don't shower after they swim in the ocean) Only 6 beds on site(We have 8 people so 2 have to sleep on the floor and house is not that big about 1200sqft. max) They don't answer the texting, you have to call when you ask something. FYI Check out time is 10 o'clock(It is on their website but who use hotel more often can confuse check out time is 11am like me) On the check out date, the clean crew team knock on the door on 10:02. So prepare yourself to get out the house before 10 o'clock.

The location of this property is great - A short walk to the grocery store, bars, and shops. The house is quaint, and can sleep 5-8 people. Catalina Island Vacation Rentals were great, once I was able to communicate with them. In the beginning, I had questions about the Commitment of Respect contract they wanted me to execute, and their contact number wasn't in any of the communication. I tried to email them with no success, and the number I found on google only allowed to leave messages. Once I had a contact and number to reach someone live, everything was sorted out, and they were very responsive during our stay. The TV and wifi were down when we arrived, and one text message to them resolved it. They were even able to let us check in early so that we can drop off our belongings and explore the island. Upon confirmation that check out was complete and there were no issues, I asked them to destroy the credit card and ID information they had on file, and they were able to accomodate. I would definitely use CIVR again!

Everything was exactly as we expected it, based on the listing. Communication was easy, the place itself was what we needed. Walking distance to everything we wanted to do and to a grocery store so we weren't eating out for every meal. Very easy to check in and check out and ask a few questions along the way. I would absolutely stay here again if the opportunity came up.

Perfect for the weekend getaway

Great location, easy access to amenities and well appointed accommodation. House is comfortable and well organized. We had a great experience and certainly would stay here again.

Property was clean except for pots/ pans had not been washed previously . Overall the property was clean

It was partly our fault that we didn't read all the fine details when it listed an "aerobed" as one of the beds. So we were surprised to arrive and find the air mattress, without sheets, as one of the beds. Otherwise, our stay was uneventful. Great proximity to the beaches and restaurants. Location is it's primary strength.

Great house. Very clean and great location but desperately needs air conditioning!

Brought my grown children out to Catalina for a family reunion, and this little cottage was our 'home base', and very comfortable for five of us to sleep, eat, play games, and explore the island.

Kitchen very well stocked. We found the premises clean and plenty of space accommodating us. Both sets of bunk beds were uncomfortable and interfered with sleep. Overall, not that well maintained with regard to lighting, outlets, furniture (would recommend new couches). Washer/dryer was nice amenity. Recommend new toaster.

Overall experience was good. If the house had been advertised as sleeping 6 it would have scored much higher. Three bedrooms, one with queen bed and two small rooms with 2 bunk beds in each. Living room bamboo couch loose cushions very greasy, dirty looking.The blow up bed in the closet was damaged (stitching in center missing) so mattress bulged out and no good to sleep on. One of our guests had tent and slept in that and the other covered couch and slept on that. The house was cute and clean otherwise and overall the area was quiet. The back yards were really nice with brick patio.

Perfect spot on the island. Everything from this location within walking distance. The house itself was small not recommended for large family. It was clean and neat. Would definitely stay here again or close to this location.

Very cute little cottage. We rented this house for my parents to get away from the chaos of the rest of us with all of the kids down the street. They really enjoyed having their quiet morning coffee in the bright, sunny front room. Great location and an easy walk into town for my older folks. Straight shot with no hills!

Thanks for everything. Location & house was fantastic!

Beautiful✨🐬🦀Close to beach and dock. Property had a fridge and washer/dryer which were essential for our family. When there was an issue it was addressed timely,, Can't wait to come back to this property..:😊💕👍🏻

Wonderful location , well stocked kitchen . Very clean. Was hit weekend and upstairs was very warm ,no air conditioning . Screens on windows worn and torn . Rental staff very helpful and easy to contact .would definetly recommend 219 Descano for large group .
